Bullying at Canadian International School?
** Posted this previously with a different heading, but would like more replies if possible. Apologies. **
Hi there.
I've recently heard that Canadian International School has a fairly bad problem with aggressive bullying of western, or non-Cantonese speaking kids by the Cantonese-speaking (either local or overseas) kids. Is there any truth at all to this? And has anyone heard of bullying problems at other International schools?
Just trying to inform myself before I make the leap into the international school admissions fray...
Thanks!

Yes, we've now heard stories from two families that experienced exactly that nature of bullying at CDNIS. Out of respect for their privacy, I'd prefer to not get into further detail, but the bullying does exist. I haven't heard about the other schools.

Thanks, WT3.
Yes, I heard a quite alarming story where it got pretty physical and the boy was really humiliated by the bullies, which is why I've put up this post.
Anyone else heard anything?
